Program Name on PocketPC

[Guest]

Good Morning!

Can anyone tell me how to go about getting the current Program Name for a WinCE App?? Win32 Apps pass the Program name as the first parameter to the "Main" method, sadly that is not the case for the compact framework.

Any suggestions??

Regards,
Ron

You could do something like this:

using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;

string appName =
Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().C
odeBase);

Similarily - any idea on how to get executable version info from a cf.net
app? the code that uses reflection to query the assembly on a desktop .net
app results with unsupportedexception on cf.net.
